A new report has shed light on what Tottenham Hotspur are thinking about Cristian Romero’s future amidst widespread transfer interest in their captain.
Romero took aim at the Tottenham hierarchy following the closure of the January transfer window, which is not the first time he has publicly had a go at his employers.
Since then, it has emerged from various sources that Romero has decided to exit the North London club at the end of this season.
It was reported last month that Spurs had moved to reassure their captain about their summer ambitions and their desire to compete at the top, but a new report has suggested that the club may have now come to a different conclusion.
Tottenham willing to sell Cristian Romero this summer
A new report in The Telegraph has now revealed that the Lilywhites may be coming around to the idea that it is time to part ways with the centre-back.
The report says that Spurs see Romero as an important player in their fight to preserve their Premier League status in the upcoming nine league games.
However, there is thought to be a growing belief at the club that it may be best for both Romero and Spurs to go their separate ways at the end of this campaign.
